Page 1 Synthesis using Carbonyl O-Substitution Chemistry Preamble This experiment involves the synthesis of target molecules using a-substitution chemistry. You are assigned two target molecules, one of which is best synthesized by an alkylation approach, while the other is best synthesized by an addition or condensation approach. You must do the following: 1. Perform a retrosynthetic analysis on the two target molecules assigned to you. In each case the organic starting material (what you have to work backwards toward) depends...
Synthesis using Carbonyla-Substitution Chemistry Preamble This experiment involves the synthesis of target molecules using a-substitution chemistry. You are assigned two target molecules, one of which is best synthesized by an alkylation approach, while the other is best synthesized by an addition or condensation approach. My two target molecules are number 2 and number 12 in the last page. You must do the following: 1. Perform a retrosynthetic analysis on the two target molecules assigned to you. In each case the...
What is the theoretical yield (in grams) and percent yield of your triphenylmethanol product in this experiment? (Weight of triphenylmethanol: 0.060g) BACKGROUND AND THEORY The Grignard reaction was one of the first organometallic reactions discovered and is still one of the most useful synthetically. By reacting an organohalide (usually a bromide) with magnesium in ethereal solvent, carbon becomes a nucleophile. Grignard reagents are the starting points for the syntheses of many alkanes, primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohols, alkenes, and carboxylic...
Experiment Write Up Proposal You will write up a synthesis procedure for one reaction that could be potentially run in a face- to-face Chem 2321 lab session. Your proposal will include an introduction and procedure. The procedure will include step-by-step instructions for running the reaction (including reaction monitoring), work-up. (product isolation and purification), and analysis (characterization). You will need to include sample calculations for percent yield and provide sample spectra analysis. You must upload your proposal as a single document...
